A big part of wanting to achieve something that seems unimaginable is by believing that it will happen with all your heart and soul... Everything that the greatest people in history have put into reality, existed beforehand only in their thoughts, in their imagination...
Everyone is capable of extraordinary things one way or another...
What is your dream? In my opinion, it is something that one's heart beats very often. It is something not deliberately thought of, and yet for some odd reason it always pops up in your head...
Ask a child what he wants, and he will instantly know what it is. This is because his heart is pure and innocent, untouched by the harshness of society, unbiased towards superficiality. As the child grows up he struggles with life, mingles with the world, has his heart tarnished with a lot of inevitable things... Then his dream is pushed back further and further into the darkest depths of his heart. Thus the saying, "people change..." Big dreams are very often called "childish," or unrealistic because they go against what one needs to "survive," which generally is money. Of course, people can't be blamed for setting their dreams aside and having a job they don't want, they cannot be blamed for wanting to "survive..." They could not be blamed for not taking risks. They could not be blamed for wanting to stay in a safe place... Sometimes we just feel so helpless that we conform to what the society requires us to do... I've seen a lot of people forced to do so and it makes me sad...
But I think its all a matter of choice. To survive, or to LIVE... There is a big BIG difference between the two. The only thing they have in common is that, no matter what choice one makes, he will always have to endure a great amount of hardship, a great amount of pain. But i think that if one puts his WHOLE heart and soul into "living," and does it with a great deal positive thinking, the end result is way more staggering... Way more rewarding than merely "surviving..."
I don't say these things out of speculation. I have lived with people who "survived," and lived with people who "lived." The one who "survived" looks happy but deep down he is depressed and miserable, wishing that he had done things differently during his youth. His heart so consumed by "what if's" and "i wish that's," that i see him living like this for the rest of his life... It breaks my heart. The one who "lived" has no regrets, and in my opinion will be on his deathbed with a smile on his face...

Don't ever let anyone make a mockery of your dreams...
